"""This module tests SyntaxErrors.
Here's an example of the sort of thing that is tested.
>>> def f(x):
... global x
Traceback (most recent call last):
SyntaxError: name 'x' is local and global (<doctest test.test_syntax[0]>, line 1)
The tests are all raise SyntaxErrors. They were created by checking
each C call that raises SyntaxError. There are several modules that
raise these exceptions-- ast.c, compile.c, future.c, pythonrun.c, and
symtable.c.
The parser itself outlaws a lot of invalid syntax. None of these
errors are tested here at the moment. We should add some tests; since
there are infinitely many programs with invalid syntax, we would need
to be judicious in selecting some.
The compiler generates a synthetic module name for code executed by
doctest. Since all the code comes from the same module, a suffix like
[1] is appended to the module name, As a consequence, changing the
order of tests in this module means renumbering all the errors after
it. (Maybe we should enable the ellipsis option for these tests.)
In ast.c, syntax errors are raised by calling ast_error().
Errors from set_context():
TODO(jhylton): "assignment to None" is inconsistent with other messages

It's a syntax error to assign to the empty tuple. Why isn't it an
error to assign to the empty list? It will always raise some error at
runtime.

>>> (x for x in x) = 1

>>> 1 = 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
SyntaxError: can't assign to literal (<doctest test.test_syntax[8]>, line 1)
>>> "abc" = 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
SyntaxError: can't assign to literal (<doctest test.test_syntax[9]>, line 1)
>>> `1` = 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
SyntaxError: can't assign to repr (<doctest test.test_syntax[10]>, line 1)
If the left-hand side of an assignment is a list or tuple, an illegal
expression inside that contain should still cause a syntax error.
This test just checks a couple of cases rather than enumerating all of
them.
>>> (a, "b", c) = (1, 2, 3)

SyntaxError: can't assign to literal (<doctest test.test_syntax[11]>, line 1)

There is one test for a break that is not in a loop. The compiler
uses a single data structure to keep track of try-finally and loops,
so we need to be sure that a break is actually inside a loop. If it
isn't, there should be a syntax error.
>>> try:
... print 1
... break
... print 2
... finally:
... print 3
Traceback (most recent call last):

This should probably raise a better error than a SystemError (or none at all).
In 2.5 there was a missing exception and an assert was triggered in a debug
build. The number of blocks must be greater than CO_MAXBLOCKS. SF #1565514
